Series history: This will be the 11th regular-season meeting, and the Bills trail 7-3. This is just the second visit to Buffalo for Tampa Bay since the team entered the NFL in 1976. … The only other game here was played in Week 2 of the 2009 season, a 33-20 Bills victory. Fred Jackson rushed for 163 yards that day and Donte Whitner had a 76-yard interception return for a touchdown. … The last time the teams met was 2013 in Tampa Bay, and the Bucs rolled to a 27-6 victory. … The last four games in the series have been decided by double-digit point margins.

Notes: The Bills’ defense continues to play well and it still leads the NFL in fewest points allowed per game (14.8). As part of that start, the Bills have given up just six touchdowns which is the third-best start through five games in team history. … Cincinnati's Andy Dalton had a nice day in the last game, but this year, the Bills have limited opposing QBs to a passer rating of 66.5, second in the NFL only to Doug Marrone’s Jaguars. … Current Bills’ defensive coordinator Leslie Frazier served in that role for the Bucs in 2014 and ’15. … DT Gerald McCoy of the Bucs has 35.5 sacks since the start of 2013, most of any player at that position. … TE Cameron Brate leads all players at his position in TD receptions (11) since the start of 2011. … WR Mike Evans is only in his fourth season with the Bucs, but he is already fifth on the team’s all-time receiving yards list (3,949).
